5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection, November 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)

This is a great collection of some of Dolly's best songs. All of the songs are awesome. This explores however, Dolly's more pop minded side. If you want to hear her more country I suggest you get "The Essential Dolly Parton, 1 and 2" and the new Super hits that was released this year. Great album!

1.0 out of 5 stars Same Old, Same Old, June 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)

Why is it that RCA/BMG keeps repackaging the same Dolly Parton songs over and over and over again?

Each of the songs on this collection have been anthologized before, while other vital early songs remain out of print.

There is some first rate material here. "The Bargain Store," and especially "Coat of Many Colors" are superb songs that help establish Parton as one of the most compelling voices in country music. But too much of this compilation is taken up with songs from the far less interesting pop/Hollywood era of her career. These songs are readily available elsewhere while such profound songs like "Down From Dover," "Gypsy, Joe, and Me," "In The Good Old Days (When Times Were Bad)" "My Blue Ridge Mountain Boy" etc. remain unavailable and out of print in either their original album form or in any compilation form.

The RCA/BMG treatment of Parton's early back catalog is an outrage, and this latest compilation is just more evidence of that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sigh, June 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)

Yet another Parton compilation that ignores her most vital early songs, while concentrating on the pop/Hollywood sellout era and the same handful of songs.

"Jolene," which is contained here, is a great song, but the rest of this is mostly the slick pop commercial Dolly that has been over anthologized. Meanwhile many of her best songs like "Down From Dover," "Gypsy, Joe and Me," "Just The Way I Am," "In The Good Old Days (When Times Were Bad)," "My Blue Ridge Mountain Boy," etc. remain unavailable and out of print.

This compilation is just another example of RCA/BMG's incompetence in dealing with Parton's back catalog.
